Invictus submitted by SBNB on July 4, 2012, 3:18pm This movie was good, but it wasn't really anything that special.

boring, even if you like rugby submitted by 21621031390949 on August 20, 2016, 11:03pm I wanted to like this movie because of the wonderfulness of Nelson Mandela, and Morgan Freeman and Matt Damon. But, this was really a 10 minute story stretched out to two hours. How many shots do you need of rugby huddles, Freeman cheering, fans jumping up and down? Apparently director Clint Eastwood thought we need about 90 minutes worth and also in slo-mo. Sheesh. Watch something else.
